Yu-Gi-Oh!

The insane card battle lives on as fans of the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" mythos seem to can't get enough of the action as the follow-up to the current "Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V" is at hand.   

The undisclosed installment of the franchise is said to have been heralded at Shueisha's so-called "Jump Festa" event and was then seconded by a tweet posted on "Yu-Gi-Oh!'s" official Twitter page, IGN noted. The post even boasted the forthcoming anime series' new hero named Yusaku Fujiki.   

The latest protagonist is depicted as a typical schoolboy with a not so typical hairstyle as it is laden with shades of blue and pink. Moreover, Comicbook also stated that Yusaku will be exhibiting more of his timid side in the upcoming show and further explained that the protagonist is not that of a show off when it comes to his special skills.

Since the new spinoff will zero in on younger audiences, the show, albeit being infused with large doses of fantasy and mild violence, will still deliver a positive message to its fans not to give up with who they want to become when they grow up. Apart from this, it is also believed that the new series will be showcasing a new type of riding duel as spy shots suggest that the characters will be battling it out on hoverboards.   

Prior to the show's release, avid followers will be given an early treat next year as "Yu-Gi-Oh!'s" latest animated movie - "The Dark Side of Dimensions," will be shelled out on January 27, 2017.  The movie will feature the return of Yugi together with his crew including his long-time rival and keeper of the "Blue Eyes" dragon Seto Kaiba.   

Info regarding the release of the sixth "Yu-Gi-Oh!" spinoff remains undisclosed. However, it is rumored to come out sometime in April next year.
